Zongwang: Unspeakable fear!

Chapter 1041 Peak of Strength and Physique (4K views, please vote)
When the ten shuttles arrived at the plain, they found only scattered limbs and a lingering crimson mist of blood that hung over the battlefield.

And then there was the man standing atop a flying shuttle, his body surging with blood energy like waves, wielding a greatsword.

"Damn it, we're too late!"

A goblin glanced at the man surrounded by blood mist outside the window with a grim expression, then turned around and said angrily.

A deep voice echoed in the cabin, like a demon's whisper: "No, you've come at the right time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other four legendary figures in the cabin changed their expressions drastically, all looking at the goblin standing by the window in horror.

The goblin was stiff and pale. He swallowed hard and looked at his teammates with a desperate look in his eyes.

Is there something behind me?

The dwarf sorcerer furthest away nodded emphatically; her face had lost all color.

laugh!
A flash of sword light appeared behind the goblin, instantly slicing through his neck before snapping back and cleaving his body in two.

puff~
The two halves of the corpse fell, their colorful entrails splattering onto the deck with a sticky, squelching sound.

Gao Yang raised his head, his deep golden-red eyes sweeping over the remaining four people. He took a step and disappeared from their senses.

Immediately afterwards, ten sword lights flashed simultaneously, cutting all ten arriving shuttles in two.

Previously, with fewer people, Gao Yang was able to control the entire scene, but now the number has increased to fifty, and these are at least peak legends, not idiots.

If they keep running away, some will eventually escape.

If they destroy this shuttle vehicle, they will only be able to escape by their own means, which will make them much easier to deal with for Gao Yang.

With the shuttle destroyed, a series of legendary figures with awe-inspiring auras rushed out of it. This time, without any negotiation, they launched a direct attack on Gao Yang.

In an instant, the battlefield was once again engulfed by various energies.

In less than ten minutes, Gao Yang landed on the ground and casually sat down on a large rock that had been rolled out.

Killing nearly eighty top-tier legends in a short period of time was a tremendous burden for him.

When a forest grows large, some variables will inevitably arise, and this is true even for birds, let alone for this group of people who have almost reached the pinnacle of mortal beings.

Even though Gao Yang himself was extremely strong, he was not completely invincible. At this moment, he had nearly ten wounds of varying sizes on his body. The most serious one was on the right side of his chest, a bloody hole that went straight through.

The flesh around the blood hole was rotting at a visible rate, but it was rejuvenated again under Gao Yang's abnormal regenerative power.

He looked up at the sky, where a figure had already turned into a black dot on the horizon—an immortal legend of the goblin race.

He deliberately let the other party leave; the battle here needed someone in the know to report it to the many executive directors waiting in the heart of wealth.

As for why an insider was released, it was because Gao Yang wanted to force the person in the Heart of Wealth to make a decision.

Let those with malicious intent amplify their malice to the extreme; let those who are wavering make their final decision; let those who oppose firmly oppose to the end.

Either give in, or fight with everything you have.

This is an open conspiracy; once this legendary goblin returns to that paradise city, the outcome will be determined in a very short time.

He still had some time to recover and improve before the other party brought the message to the City of Heaven.

A total of seventy-nine peak legendary and above powerhouses died at his hands, and his gains were extremely considerable.

Putting aside everything else, he alone acquired more than 120 Life Essence Crystals, which were coveted by the Goblin and Dwarf Merchant Guilds.

As for the various attribute fragments, the quantity is less, but the attributes obtained are enough for him to use for improvement.

A thought flashed through Gao Yang's mind, and he opened his backpack.

【力量碎片：23；体质碎片：25；敏捷碎片：16；感知碎片：21；智力碎片：13；魅力碎片：17】

He took out the attribute fragments that could be synthesized one by one, and then began to synthesize them.

A moment later, a total of six attribute gems lay quietly in front of him. There were two each of strength and constitution, one each of agility and charm. As for the fragments of perception and intelligence, since Gao Yang's two attributes had not yet reached legendary level, he could not absorb them even if they were condensed, so he did not move them.

"Click~"

Gao Yang took a big bite of the Vitality Kro fruit pulp, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

As his life essence was replenished, his injuries began to heal.

After eating the entire Vitality Chloe, all his injuries had been completely healed.

Gao Yang calculated the time; a total of thirteen minutes had passed since the battle ended. At that goblin's speed, they should be close to the next city by now.

Once he arrives in the city, he will be able to use the teleportation array to directly reach the City of Paradise.

Soon, the many "big shots" on that floating island called "Heart of Wealth" will know just how powerful he really is.

Of course, they also knew that his strength had its limits, and he was seriously injured under the combined attack of the crowd.

"Then, if you want to continue to oppose me, then send more legendary experts to surround and kill me."

Or, unleash your final trump card and let the gods themselves slay me.

Gao Yang's lips curled slightly, and he picked up the attribute gem in front of him and began to refine it.

Half an hour later, he had finished refining all six attribute gems.

Gao Yang exhaled a long breath of turbid air, a breath that was reddish-black, and shot across a hundred meters like an arrow, striking a stone slab covered in ice and shattering it before slowly dissipating.

He clenched his fist, and an extremely abundant and solid sense of power emerged in his perception.

Gao Yang smiled; this real and authentic power was so satisfying.

After absorbing these six attribute gems, his strength and constitution officially broke through the 40-point mark, reaching 41 points, while his charm and agility also improved further.

It's no exaggeration to say that he is now several times stronger than he was before he refined those six attribute gems.

As one's cultivation progresses and the base number increases, the gains from each advancement become increasingly terrifying.

Gao Yang flicked Yongyao's finger lightly. Yongyao deserves a lot of credit for his current ability to maintain such an exaggerated rate of progress.

Without the numerous attribute fragments and life essence crystals plundered by Yongyao's hunting priesthood, even if he wanted to improve, it would never have been as simple and efficient as it is now.

The birth of Yongyao was a miracle in itself, a miracle formed by the collision of various coincidences. If any one of these steps had gone wrong, it would probably have been impossible to forge this extraordinary divine weapon.

Time flew by, and a sliver of dawn appeared on the dark horizon.

A moment later, the sky brightened, but still no new flying shuttle arrived. Gao Yang glanced at the light on the horizon and slowly stood up.

Since you're not coming, then I'll go to you.

With his fighting spirit surging, Gao Yang left a series of afterimages as he flew at high speed towards the City of Paradise. Behind him were rings of sound barrier clouds that had been shattered, and the boiling air waves left behind a trail of air like a rocket after it had passed.

If a newly crowned legend were to travel from Haranf City to Paradise City in his physical form, it would take him a full six months to fly there.

Even for Gao Yang, it would take a full five days to arrive without affecting his condition.

This time is the shortest time Gao Yang has calculated. If it were any faster, it would cause him some damage.

For four and a half days, Gao Yang did not encounter any more legends.

In every city along the way, he mercilessly killed any beings of the extraordinary level or above.

Now that they are enemies, he will naturally not show any mercy. As for slaughtering civilians below the level of the extraordinary, such things are meaningless.

As dusk fell, Gao Yang flew over another bustling city called "Golden City." After passing Golden City, flying another ten thousand miles would take him to the center of the Salisbury plane, the city of paradise.

The city walls of Golden City, which are hundreds of meters high, are already filled with guards holding weapons.

Gao Yang's actions over the past four days have become known to the rulers of the Golden City, and there are no longer any beings of extraordinary or higher status in the Golden City.

The highest authority among them was an ordinary, aged goblin elder with little aura about him. He was the steward of this golden city, assisting the city lord in managing the entire city.

Gao Yang slowly descended from the sky and landed in front of the old goblin, who bowed deeply and said respectfully:

"Your Excellency Gao Yang, the City Lord has heard of your illustrious reputation and has already left Golden City for Paradise City. If you have any anger, vent it on this old man."

Gao Yang's senses swept across the entire city, and indeed he did not find any being whose aura surpassed that of the extraordinary.

It seems that his actions over the past few days have made these high-ranking officials aware of his style and convinced that he would not massacre civilians.

Gao Yang lowered his gaze to the old goblin in front of him, who was practically banging his head against the ground, and calmly said, "Alright!"

The old goblin suddenly looked up at Gao Yang, his cloudy old eyes filled with fear of death.

He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but Gao Yang had already flicked his finger, and a sword light pierced into his head.

slap~
Like a ripe watermelon being violently struck by a sledgehammer, the old goblin's head and upper body exploded, spreading red and white across a radius of several meters around his body.

Then, Gao Yang looked at the other ordinary guards on the city wall and slowly said, "Since your rulers have fled, then you shall die in their place."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yang casually unleashed a dark purple sword aura.

The sword energy pierced into the nearest goblin guard, devouring everything about him. Then, the sword energy split into nine, rushing towards the nine nearest guards.

Subsequently, the sword light continued to split and split again, until the entire golden city was submerged in dark purple sword light.

With just a single sword flash, all living beings in a city with a population of tens of millions were slaughtered, leaving no living creatures.

The city was utterly desolate, yet Gao Yang remained unmoved. He took flight from the city wall, soaring over the dead city and continuing his journey toward the City of Paradise.

Over the next half day, Gao Yang passed through seven smaller cities. Without exception, all the extraordinary beings and above in these cities had already fled. Therefore, Gao Yang showed no mercy and wiped out all the lives in these cities.

In the dead of night, Gao Yang finally saw the legendary city of paradise.

The darkness did not impair Gao Yang's vision at all, and after seeing the towering city walls of this paradise city, he slowly stopped in his tracks.

This city is huge, very huge. Since he entered the online world, he has seen hundreds of magnificent cities, but this paradise city still shocked him.

The city of paradise lies across an endless plain, its walls high, thick, and long, stretching from east to west without end, covering an area of ​​unknown size. From afar, it resembles a colossal celestial beast lying on the earth, majestic and magnificent.

Beneath the city wall facing Gaoyang, eight official roads, each a hundred meters wide, resembled eight giant dragons swallowed whole by the City of Paradise.

Despite it being late at night, the eight official roads at the city gate were still crowded with pedestrians coming and going.

Paradise City, as the core of the Salisbury plane and one of the foundations of the Goblin and Gnome Merchant Guild, is the largest city in the entire plane, a city where countless powerful and wealthy individuals gather.

The daily consumption of various resources is an astronomical figure, and the transactions based on this are equally staggering.

Even Gao Yang's arrival did not affect the city's prosperity and extravagance in the slightest.

Ordinary people wouldn't feel anything, but Gao Yang clearly sensed that in the darkness outside the city walls, one after another, terrifying legends were quietly lurking, seemingly waiting for his arrival.

It seems the Goblin and Gnome Merchant Guild has made its choice.

Ten thousand meters away from the City of Paradise, Gao Yang landed slowly and walked step by step toward the City of Paradise.

With each step he took, his body expanded, and after just five steps, a giant reaching 100,000 meters in height appeared out of thin air outside the walls of Paradise City.

Gao Yang looked down at the giant city below, his right leg below the knee was already enveloped in liquid gold-like battle qi, radiating endless light and heat like a sun.

The next moment, amidst numerous rising orbs of light, Gao Yang, who was 100,000 meters tall, kicked towards the City of Paradise in front of him.

Rumble~
The foot, ten thousand meters wide, shattered the air, causing space to explode wherever it passed. The space in the distance was compressed layer by layer, surging outwards like a tsunami.

Amidst the chaotic flight of numerous legends, a foot wreathed in battle aura slammed into the city wall.

Boom!
A deafening roar erupted in the night, the earth shook violently, and dust spread rapidly. Countless earthen dragons, carrying tons of soil, rocks, and rubble, shot into the sky over a thousand meters high, almost touching the heavens.

At first glance, the earthen dragons stand like a forest, a truly magnificent sight.

With a kick, Gao Yang had returned to his normal size. The earthen dragons that shot straight into the sky fell heavily to the ground after reaching their peaks.

"who is it!!!"

A deafening roar echoed from the center of the city.

The sound contained boundless majesty and fury; wherever the sound waves passed, everything from rising dust to shaking space was completely calmed.

As the smoke cleared, the pupils of the many legends who had managed to escape in time shrank, staring in horror at the City of Paradise below.

The once towering city walls have mostly collapsed, and massive amounts of mud, sand, and boulders are scattered radially throughout the city behind them.

A network of massive ravines, some thousands of meters deep, crisscrossed the area. Wherever these ravines passed, there was no sign of any life, except for a few survivors on the edges.

In an instant, cries of agony filled the air, and the deafening screams shook the heavens.

With just one kick, it destroyed almost half of the city of paradise.
